That guy owned both cars too!!
I think he's gonna race them together again, and now that he knows how to disable the TC he thinks it'll be a different race, we'll see though.

Wondering why it would be better with push rods?

"@juanmedinar20 It ran 11.62 all motor. The 10.88 was with a 100 shot. So I guess it does run better than 11.8's huh."

i drove one about a month ago - 6 speed & they'll actually haul. i got some hot-shot 20yr old brand-new salesman who wanted to rape it just as bad as i did, so we both romped on it a bit... no TC. car handles pretty good, but the brakes could use some work. overall, it's a pretty decent car & it actually felt smaller than the camaro when driving. completely blew the pants off the 08 i drove a couple years ago

I love the 5.0 pushrod motor. And yeah, the new 5.0 isnt the same but...it does make 400 plus NA hp....NICE. and it sounds SICK. Ford..PROPS for stepping up the power.

Ok ive seen a few running around here in my town...
Is the GT the 5.0 or are they making a GT separate from the 5.0?
Ive heard the 5.0 was the base stange now is that correct?

2011 Mustang GT V8 is the 5.0 from my understanding.
